The led bars, do they take 12V or is a resistor needed in the wiring to lower the voltage on them?
Is a resistor needed over the turn indicators to make them blink in a normal fashion (not fast as if one is broken)?

I'm also thinking of retrofitting the LCI tails for a while now but the price of the lights and an additional module is a little over the budget I want to spend on it. So I was thinking of doing it in a similar way as you did. Nice to see it's working out for you.


No resistors needed after proper NCS coding.Now I seeking any original LCI car to see what is the brightness of LEDs strips.
